Faith & Truth Lead to Godliness

By Anne Elliott, April 20, 2012, AnneElliott.com

I’ve been pondering what I should write about next on my blog, and it seems like the Spirit was whispering that Titus 2:3-5 is the passage that applies to women. Since I’m teaching women here, I thought I better look it up.

I was arguing with Him a little, though. “Titus 2 again? That’s what all the women bloggers are writing about. I have nothing unique to write about it. It’s been way overdone!”

But on the other hand, these verses do say that this is what “older women” are to teach to the “younger women.” (Not that I’m old or anything…) Continue Reading

Why Good Grammar

By Richard Mitchell, June 30, 2022, ALittlePerspective.com

I have been given this assignment: To write on the question, Why good grammar? I have not been explicitly asked to answer the question, however, and for that I am grateful. It is a strange question, after all, something like Why clean hands? And its best answer is really, Well, why not? If there is anything to be proved here, it ought to be left to those who support the cause of “bad grammar.”

The fact that a collection of English teachers can put that question forth as worthy of serious consideration is far more interesting than the question itself, for it suggests that we need desperately to defend the continuance of an enterprise in which we have regularly failed to bring about any noticeable public devotion to what we call “good grammar.” And it conjures up a disquieting image of a colloquium of mining engineers which devotes one of its afternoon sessions to considering the topic: Why would English teachers sit around asking themselves “Why Good Grammar?” Surely they would find more fascination in that question than in “Why Good Arithmetic?” Continue Reading

Bored Box

By Kaitlyn Elliott, March 16, 2020, Garden Cafe Blog

Growing up, there were naturally a slew of words that my parents taught my siblings and I not to say. One of them, however, is rarely banned in households, and that is the word “bored.” Sure, it wasn’t actually banned in our home, either, but we were supposed to stay creative and play, finding something to do, or else Mom would say she’d give us more math to do. Lol

This ban on “bored” didn’t always work, though. Every once in awhile, no matter how hard we tried to come up with something to do, nothing would come to mind, or we just didn’t feel like doing the stuff we did think of. As such, Mom got creative herself and made us all a Bored Box. This Bored Box was filled with 3×5″ cards, each listing something we could do to fill our time, from cleaning and chores to science experiments to artistic things to games to toys we could play with, then put in an easy-to-see location in our school room. This Bored Box, although used less as we grew older, was referenced on many, many occasions by all of us and really helped, especially in the winter months, to keep us from going stir crazy (and our poor mother as well).
